Libumem uses a *lot* more memory than the standard allocator. See the
various man pages (man `man -k umem`), and the original "Slab" allocator

And don't rely on nagios or the like to spot the sort of transient
memory spike that can be caused by bacula-fd, you need to crank it up to
look every few seconds.
